Oticon Vigo, Vigo Pro and Epoq V now available from Hidden Hearing

Epoq – A digital hearing aidThe latest device available at Hidden Hearing is the Oticon Epoq, an innovative device that takes hearing care to an exciting new dimension. And if you are worried about the price, don’t be, because the Oticon Epoq is now available in an affordably priced new version, the Epoq V. This new version offers better hearing for the more budget-conscious. The Oticon Epoq boasts the same wireless connectivity as the premium Epoq XW and the mid priced Epoq W, at a fraction of the cost. At the touch of a button, the Epoq V wirelessly co-ordinates volume and programme shifts in two Epoq hearing devices. This automatically secures a baseline for a more balanced sound picture. And with 8 kHz bandwidth, sound quality, localisation, and speech understanding are also enhanced.

The Epoq V is a digital hearing aid that connects wirelessly to Bluetooth-enabled communication and entertainment devices, including landline and cell phones, radios, MP3 players, personal computers, laptops, and now, TVs as well.

Peter Sydserff, product manager for Hidden Hearing states, ‘We are delighted to be fitting our clients with Oticon Epoq. The results since introducing the product last year is literally outstanding and one more year on we now have a value version’.

Studies were conducted with 34 hearing professionals and 134 Epoq users. The Epoq earned an impressive 90% satisfaction rating based on spatial sound and wireless connectivity.

Using the latest binaural wireless processing, the Epoq offers the most advanced hearing experience. The binaural wireless processing enables a pair of Epoq hearing instruments to work as one central processing unit. This helps support the brain’s proper interpretation of various sounds in the environment, resulting in a completely natural hearing experience. This allows users to focus on sounds they want to hear, and suppress the unwanted ones.

Hearing aid audiologist Phillip Page said, ‘It is a big advantage to be able to offer a hearing system that is now proven as the best in the world. This test used the top technology from other manufacturers and shows that Hidden Hearing is once again in the position to offer an unrivalled level of product quality combined with great customer service.’

Oticon is a leader in its field, so much so, that it has won three prestigious, international awards. These awards include the Danish Product Award for its ‘world class engineering, design and craftsmanship’, the Best Innovations 2008 in the healthcare category from the American Consumer Electronics Association, and the esteemed 2008 Red Dot Award for creativity, innovations and pioneering design.

Hidden Hearing has also recently introduced Vigo Pro and Vigo, two affordable, full product families of premium performing hearing instruments. This allows budget-conscious clients to benefit from state of the art hearing technology as well.

It is the excellent combination of high end features, better sound quality, and the easy and straightforward fitting process that makes Vigo real value for money. Reports Peter Sydserff, ‘With Vigo we can now provide technologies that were precisely seen at the top of our price list’. “These fantastic new systems allow us to tackle difficult listening environments without having to opt for top of the range hearing aids, and are a great example of where Hidden Hearing offers true value for money.’

An innovative feature of the Vigo Pro is the Volume Control Learning function. This function allows the hearing aid to ‘learn’ how you prefer to use it in difficult hearing situations and environments. It will then begin to make changes before you do.
